Message I know I hate when people say that after something like this happens, and the only reason I can say it is because I recently spun and curbed my car at an autocross event. Destroyed the passenger side lca, t-rod, sway bar end link, wheel, tire, jspec fascia, and passenger side fender. Not nearly as bad as your accident sounds, but busted the Z up pretty good.

Where's the silver lining for me? I was planning on getting the whole car repainted over this winter so it really doesnt bother me a whole lot. A few suspension components new wheel/tire fascia etc and the repaint over the winter and I'm happier than ever.

Here's the silver lining for you, I needed a passenger side fender, So I emailed Bernie. I didn't realize at the time that the "parts car" that he would be receiving would be yours. But I will be getting your passenger side fender to replace mine that was messed up from the auto-x accident :)

I know it's not much but you can take with you the fact that your car will live on in a different form and your parts will make many other Z enthusiasts very happy.

Glad you are ok and best of luck, whatever you do next!
